Soapa 2008
Here are some pictures of the SOAPA adventure to Mackinac Island in Michigan yesterday. Great flight, great company and wonderful event. We arrived just about as planned and flying over a gentle ceiling that abruptly ended when we found the shore of the Mackinac Straits. This is where Lake Huron meets Lake Michigan. The Mackinac bridge spans 5 miles across the staits to connect lower Michigan to the Upper Pennisula of Michigan. After a delightful day on the island we flew back down along the lake shore of Lake Michigan from the bridge to Holland, Michigan and then east to Kalamazoo. What a great trip.
